Is freesync bad on nvidia gpus?

[Alec]

I just bought a freesync monitor but i have a nvidia gpu, will it ruin my gameplay experience or something?

[Omega]

No.

You GPU doesn't support Freesync so it will simply not use it. Freesync only works on AMD GPUs.

[Rumpelcrutchskin]

No it just works like any other monitor without adaptive sync.

It's like running a G-SYNC monitor with AMD graphics card, it just ignore that feature and runs standard.

Nvidia graphic cards can actually support freesync, but not offically and it's kind of a mess to try (modified drivers), suggest just running it as normal (with latest drivers).

Im new to this btw, what does freesync do? Is it really that important?

It's a form of input lagless Vsync.

Ahhh ok, anyways, everything else will work fine right? the 1 ms response and 75hz. The monitor is ASUS VG245H

You would ideally want a G-SYNC monitor with Nvidia graphics card. That is a microchip inside the monitor (costs extra), but syncs the monitor Hz refresh rate with whatever the graphic card FPS dishes out.

FreeSYNC works with AMD graphics card. It just uses the cable (needs to be displayport cable) to sync the monitor Hz with FPS.

Is it a brand new monitor? If so, what's the price difference between it and a similar with G-SYNC?

I really dont know, i thought i saw another monitor for 20 dollars less and it was gsync, 1ms response but had a 60hz refresh rate, this one has a 75hz refresh rate and its freesync

[Alec]

Anyways, thanks guys i really appreciate it!

I wouldn't honestly bother with 60Hz G-SYNC. When getting G-SYNC you would want as higher Hz as possible... normally 165Hz (which gets expensive).

The idea of G-SYNC is to allow for future proofing as such. Say your graphics card dishes out 82FPS on average... then G-SYNC will allow up to that max Hz. If it was just 60Hz max, then it would be just the same as that FreeSYNC monitor with V-SYNC enabled capped at 60Hz, no differences what-so-ever and not worthwhile changing. However, if it was 165Hz G-SYNC, then you would get that 82FPS output (82Hz) and be able to work your way up to 165Hz later down the track perhaps with SLI or another graphics card... making it more worthwhile (future proofing) later on down the track.

Ahh ok, one more question, what thing in the monitor makes your games graphics look better, for some reason my friends monitor which is a Benq gaming monitor, games look way better when it comes to graphics, i have a semi-good AOC monitor rn and i do play games on high but they look a little bit different than from my friends monitor, he has the GTX 1060 6GB i have the 3GB version SC, im hoping for games to look better on the new monitor (sorry for my english)

The monitor won't matter for that other then a few things.

The hz it uses as 144 hz monitors will look smoother gameplay then a 60hz monitor provided your computer can handle it.

An ips monitor will have better colors then a tn monitor plus it has a wider viewing angle then a tn monitor where you need to be right in front of a tn monitor for best viewing.

If both of your monitors are the same then it could just be your friend is able to use higher graphical settings then yours or resolution if it's a 1440p while yours is a 1080p monitor or such.

Its a 1080p he uses, and yeah i guess its the IPS, anyways thank you so much! Have a nice day.

Without AMD Freesync card ASUS VG245H is limited to 60Hz when native resolution is used.
